Why we have little to fear from ''No deal''
|
By:
The EU brought this on themselves - When Cameron went to the EU requesting a change to freedom of movement, they basically said tough. They don't care about their citizens say and then wonder why populism is growing. They should remember they work for the people and unless they take them with them they will see populist parties grow. They just want our money and people like osmond support this sort of
banditry. |

Trade will not simply stop on march 30th - the scaremongering will continue to the very end in an attempt to stop brexit. The eu wants its pound of flesh and they simply do not want the naughty bad voters of the uk to get away with it.

It is all about building an empire ruled by a small number of bureacrats and politics and osmond couldn't give a fig.

moisok, Have you considered that your posts would look less ludicrous if you simply left out the abuse of other posters?

By:
he did one post without abuse so it must of crossed his mind
but then he couldnt go back to back .... hey ho |
|
By:
I know, but the worst bit is he posts abuse at me even though I can't clarify enough that I have no strong views either way on the EU and the current situation.

its a bit like being savaged by lfc !

Remember Moisok rise above the abuse.
Trolls want a reaction although tbf this pair are pretty poor at the goading stakes. |

akabula is only here to post personal abuse.

I was going to post that it was like being savaged by a mouse and a t1tmouse at that.

I am only interested in the facts. These others who sling the innuendo around and enjoy sniping really don't interest me, but I like to call them out for what they are. Sniping away at people who support change and who are critics of the eu federal experiment.

moisok, how many times do I need to say it? I have no strong views on the EU. You are entitled to any opinion you have on it, I am not criticising you in any way.

If you want to see Eu propaganda at its very worst you should check out the new statesman.
It is such a sad site to see this once great rag sink to the support of the federalist experiment. Once upon a time, we on the left and within the labour party opposed the Eu. This rag appears to have done an about face just like the party did. |

In fact, now I think about it, the whole Lexit thing suffers from the gaping flaw at the heart of the left: its impracticality. A really serious left winger seems to spend a lot more time dealing in ideological purity than in actually manoeuvring to get things done. Give me 10 Keir (good name) Starmers over one Jeremy Corbyn. McDonald is a slightly different case, as he’s pretty hard left but does seem to have a practical streak. Problem is, he’s also got a mean streak and I don’t trust anyone that obviously nasty unless I’m very sure they’re totally on my side.

If there’s stuff you’re struggling with just ask though.
On the contrary Fatslogger, it's not a case of any failure to understand your efforts. It's just that I find them extremely tedious reading. As for me not denying being a troll, I've never denied being a commie either so does that make me one? And by the way - who's the troll here with all your references to me? And before you come back and triumphantly claim that I must read your posts because I answered one of them, I'll admit that on occasions I do a search of each page with the first few letters of my username as the subject. |

By:
Nice bit of false equivalence. Nobody asked you whether you were a commie, plenty of people called you a troll, after you indulged in obvious trolling (you even listed the people you thought you’d trolled on the Trump thread) and you didn’t deny it. I note that you didn’t deny it just now either. If it’s an ugly thing, under a bridge, holding a club, grunting and trying to eat goats, it’s a...
I don’t believe I replied to a post of yours on this thread or referenced you until you owned up to being too dim to understand my posts (or however you’re now framing it). You didn’t, therefore, find a post referencing you here with your rather narcissistic searching until you’d ready picked a fight by falling over your own shoe laces in front of me. Don’t worry though, I’m used to your very hazy grasp of the facts, like, while we’re here, the EU army that we have a veto on but yes, obviously we’d have conscription (a rather outmoded concept) into it if we stayed in Europe. |

I think most of the more hysterical sounding stuff about no deal is just contingency planning for the very worst possibilities following a no deal exit that is already unlikely. Also, somewhat obviously, there is a bit of manipulation going on here to talk up the risks. That doesn’t mean the risks aren’t huge though.
There’s no precedent for this and the extent of our ties with the EU in trade (goods and more importantly services, which would be even more affected) and regulation is oddly massively under appreciated by the same people who tell us the EU has its tentacles far too far into our country. Typical Brexit contradiction, isn’t it? It goes nicely with the one about needing to leave the EU to trade on bettter terms with everyone else (conveniently forgetting that we have lots of trade deals outside the EU because we’re part of the EU but that’s not the punchline) while simultaneously saying that it’s totally fine to undermine our very detailed and deep trade arrangements with our largest trade partner by far. |
